We got the exact same message from Hong Kong visa office today. I hope to find some free time to contact someone at CIC about this today. If I figure something out I will post here. Very confusing.
I also sent out a case specific inquiry attaching a photo of the original form and number.
It seems we are twins in this game.
What city are you applying from?
I would be grateful to hear what they say when you manage to call and get through.

Hi guys! Still waiting for SA and its more than the 29 days processing time they've given. I've called CIC yesterday and they told me to wait because the 29 days is just an average... Anyway, what I've noticed in myCIC is that they've changed the Review of Eligibility from Not Started to Review in Progres... Based on my understanding, updates in myCIC is all about the PR side, right? Does it mean that they've started to work on the PR application even before SA? No updates on ECAS though.

Ours changed to Review in Progress even before SA too. :) What does it say on your ECAS on the Sponsorship side?

Yes thanks akn2016 for your feedback, I will try tonight with my UCI and my name if that works to link the application.

If not I will have to keep waiting and link it through my wife's Application Number.

Congrats, I'm pretty sure that means SA will be coming soon! I find it really strange that we haven't gotten anything though... I guess we just have a crappy agent or something who isn't doing much work.

If that's the case then that's great news! :) I hope that they send SA formally by Monday or this weekend if they are working during weekends. On ECAS, under Sponsorship Side, it still says In Process and that they have started processing my application Sept 15. On the PR side, it still says Application Received and that they have already received the medical results.

Maybe they just haven't updated your ECAS yet :) Hey! I just figured today that the last time they updated MyCIC was on September 12. That was when Review of Eligibility was changed to Review In Progress. And guess what? They issued my SA September 13! :) So, I'm pretty sure that you'll have your SA very very soon too! :)
